Faster Processing, Faster Insight: Machine Learning with Apache® Spark™ SQL, Tableau, and Simba

On-Demand Webinar

You've got the performance of Apache Spark™ for your data. You've got the power of Tableau Software for your analytics. Now what?



Spark is fast for in-memory processing. But it's also faster than Hadoop alternatives for on-disk data processing. In this interactive webinar, thought leaders from Databricks, Tableau Software, and Simba Technologies will discuss and demonstrate how to connect Spark data to Tableau with Simba ODBC connectivity, and more importantly, show how to use machine learning to derive insight from Spark data with Tableau visualizations.
